Use only the first decimal points (X.X) for atomic masses. R = 8.314 L*kPa/mole*K . In a reactor at 200.0 kPA and 401 L, hydrogen and oxygen combine by the following reaction:2H2(g) + O2(g) --> 2H2O(g)51.2 g of hydrogen and 392 g of oxygen are placed into the reactor. What is the limiting reagent? H2 or O2 What is the final temperature of the system?
The oxidation of ethylene to produce ethylene oxide proceeds according to the equation2C 2H 4 +O 2 ! 2C 2H 4OThe feed to a reactor contains 100 kmol C 2H 4 and 100 kmol O 2. If the reaction proceeds to completion, how much of the excess reactant will be left; how much C 2H 4O will be formed; and what is the extent of reaction?
Coal-fired power plants emit CO2, which is one of the gases that is of concern with regard to global warming. A technique that power plants can adopt to keep most of the CO2 from entering the air is called CO2 capture and storage (CCS). If the incremental cost of the sequestration process is $0.019 per kilowatt-hour, what is the present worth of the extra cost over a 3-year period to a manufacturing plant that uses 100,000 kWh of power per month? The interest rate is 12% per year compounded quarterly.

The reaction of solid calcium fluoride and sulfuric acid produces calcium sulfate solids and gaseous HF. The gas product is dissolved in water to form hydrofluoric acid. Fluorite ore, a source of calcium fluoride, contains 95%wt CaF2 and 5%wt SiO2. In a certain process, the ore is reacted with 93%wt aqueous sulfuric acid, supplied 15% in excess. From this, 95% of the ore dissolves in the acid. Some of the HF formed reacts with the dissolved silica in the reaction: HF reacts with SiO2 to produce H2SiF6 and liquid water. If 60%wt of hydrofluoric acid was formed when hydrogen fluoride (which exits the reactor) is dissolved in water, determine the amount of ore needed to produce one metric ton of acid. Report your answers to one decimal place only.
Two-hundred fifty pounds per hour of iron pyrites containing 90% FeS2 and 10% gangue are burned with 20% excess air based on conversion to SO3. The cinder discharged from the burner contains no sulfur. No conversion to SO3 occurs in the burner. The burner gas is passed through a converter which effects a 98% conversion of SO2 to SO3. The converter gas is passed to an absorber where all the SO3 is absorbed by 80% H2SO4 solution, which becomes 100% H2SO4 solution in the process. Establish a basis of one hundred pounds of iron pyrites Calculate: (a) the burner gas analysis, (b) the converter gas analysis, (c) pounds of 100% H2SO4 produced per 24-h day, if waste gas analyzes 0.19% SO2, 4.14% O2 and 95.67% N2
Use only the first decimal points (X.X) for atomic masses. R = 8.314 L*kPa/mole*K . In a 2.50 L reactor at 27 *C, sodium oxide captures CO2 from the gas phase by the following reaction:Na2O(s) + CO2(g) --> Na2CO3(s)36.2 g of Na2O(s) and 26.1 g of CO2(g) are placed into the reactor.

(a) A commercial 737 jet transporting 143 passengers and 5 crew members from Kansas City (MCI) to Baltimore (BWI) burned 11,800 lb (about 1700 gallons) of Jet A fuel en route. Jet A fuel is kerosine based, consisting primarily of CnH2n+2 hydrocarbons, with n =6 to 16, so the carbon:hydrogen ratio is close to 1:2. During this flight, how much CO2 was released into the atmosphere? Assume the combustion of the fuel was complete, so all the fuel was burned to form CO2 and H2O. Give both the mass of CO2 produced (in kg and in lbs) and the volume it would occupy at 298 K, 1 atm.(b) How much CO2 would be released into the atmosphere if those passengers and crew made the trip instead, in pairs, in hybrid cars at 40 miles per gallon. Assume the density of the gasoline is 0.75 kg L-1 and that carbon and hydrogen dominate the composition in a ratio of 1:2. The road trip is 1082 miles.
Acetaminophen, a popular drug taken as pain reliever and fever reducer, is produced together with acetic acid from the reaction of 3.05 g 4-aminophenol and 4.1 ml of acetic anhydride. Acetaminophen was extracted at 60% yield. Density of acetic anhydride at 20 C, 1.08 g/ml. Calculate the actual no. of grams of acetaminophen produced. [Determine L.R., E.R.]
Gypsum (plaster of Paris : CaSO,. 2H,0) is produced by the reaction of calcium carbonate and sulfuric acid. A certain lime stone analyzes: CaCO, 96.89 %; MgCO, 1.41 %; inerts 1.70 %. For 5 metric tons of limestone reacted completely, determine: a. kg of anhydrous gypsum (CaSO,) produced. b. kg of sulfuric acid solution (98 wt%) required.
